Oil Cooler Lines

[gareth]

Looking for the pair of lines that go from the STOCK oil cooler to the oil filter housing. These are the ones that have the bent tubing section that attaches to the filter housing and the flexible hose that meets the cooler itself. Left and Right.
I don't care if the flexible hose section is damaged. I am trying to reroute the lines around a custom exhaust and will be installing new braided lines. I just don't want to modify my existing lines and need end fittings to make the new ones work..

PM me if you have anything..

Thanks ,

Gareth.

Hey Gareth,

How are those shocks working out for you?

I don't know how much you want to spend, but if you take some measurements and bring your cooler and filter cover to a hydraulics place, they should be able to do up something for you for a reasonable price, just a thought. I use a local shop that can make up what I want and they aren't terribly expansive.

or expensive either...

Well, I have a set of those lines, but I'm still cogitating on whether to put the oil cooler on or not. I'm not frankly sure that I need it, but the major thing is figure out how/where to mount it with the fairing on my bike. I'll be looking at this to make a final decision soon, and if your still looking at this point, I may well have the entire cooler setup available at that time.

You might also look into TK's spin on oil filter and oil cooler rig. I think it might do the trick too, as it replaces the oil cooler plate and also switches you to using a spin on oil filter at the same time.

It just has fitting to connect the lines to rather than those funky connections on the factory oil cooler plate.

Thanks for the input, Gentlemen...

I haven't installed the shocks yet, too much to do still in other areas...
I will check out the spin-on mod.. It hadn't occured to me that maybe there were other options to plumb the cooler in. I had another look today and was planning to see if I could just bend the rigid oil cooler lines so that they were out of the way of the exhaust. No sure yet how I will go with this. The front is beginning to look a bit busy already with the Spaghetti exhaust and I think slimmer oil cooler lines, maybe with a nice braided stainless cover would neaten things up. The stock lines are kinda chunky, look fine with the stock headers but not really manageable with the over-and-under Jardines.
